    							Important Safeguards and Precautions
    2
    INSTALLATION
    1 POWER SOURCE CAUTIONOperate only from power source indicated on unit
    or in this manual. If uncertain, have your Electric
    Utility Service Company or Video Products Dealer
    verify your home power source.
    2 POWER CORD PLUGFor safety, this unit has a polarized type plug (one wide
    blade), or a three-wire grounding type plug. Always
    hold the plug firmly and make sure your hands are
    dry when plugging in or unplugging the AC power cord.
    Regularly remove dust, dirt, etc. on the plug.
    POLARIZED PLUG CAUTION:The plug fits into outlet only one way. If it cannot be
    fully inserted, try reversing it. If it still will not fit, have
    an electrician install the proper wall outlet. Do not
    tamper with the plug.
    GROUNDING PLUG CAUTION:The plug requires a three-hole grounding outlet.
    If necessary, have an electrician install the proper
    outlet. Do not tamper with the plug.
    3 POWER CORDTo avoid unit malfunction, and to protect against
    electrical shock, fire or personal injury:
    - Keep power cord away from heating appliances
    and walking traffic. Do not rest heavy objects on,
    or roll such objects over the power cord.
    - Do not tamper with the cord in any way.
    - An extension cord should have the same type
    plug (polarized or grounding) and must be securely
    connected.
    - Overloaded wall outlets or extension cords are
    fire hazards.
    - Frayed cords, damaged plugs, and damaged or
    cracked wire insulation are hazardous and should
    be replaced by a qualified electrician.
    4 DO NOT BLOCK VENTILATION HOLESVentilation openings in the cabinet release heat
    generated during operation. If blocked, heat
    build-up may result in a fire hazard or heat
    damage to discs.
    For your protection:
    a. Never cover ventilation slots while unit is ON,
    or operate unit while placed on a bed, sofa,
    rug, or other soft surface.
    b. Avoid built-in installation, such as a book case
    or rack, unless properly ventilated.
    5 AVOID EXTREMELY HOT LOCATIONS OR
    SUDDEN TEMPERATURE  CHANGES
    Do not place unit over or near a heater or radiator, in
    direct sunlight, inside closed vehicles,
    in high temperature [over 95 °F (35 °C)], or in over
    75% humidity. If unit is suddenly moved from a
    cold place to a warm one, moisture may condense in
    unit and on the tape causing damage. Never subject
    unit to vibration, impact, or place it so that the
    surface is tilted as internal parts may be seriously
    damaged.
    6 TO AVOID PERSONAL INJURY Never place unit on support or stand that is not
    firm, level, and adequately strong. The unit could
    fall causing serious injury to a child
    or adult and damage to the unit.
     Move any appliance and cart
    combination with care.
    Quick stops, excessive force, and
    uneven surfaces may cause objects to overturn.
     Carefully follow all operating instructions.
    USING THE  UNITBefore unit is brought out of storage or moved to a new location,
    refer again to the INSTALLATION section of these safeguards.
    1 KEEP UNIT WELL AWAY FROM WATER OR
    MOISTURE, such as vases, sinks, tubs, etc.2 IF EXPOSED TO RAIN, MOISTURE, OR
    STRONG IMPACT, unplug unit and have it inspected by
    a qualified service technician before use.
    3 ELECTRICAL STORMSDuring a lightning storm, or before leaving unit unused for
    extended periods of time, disconnect all equipment from the
    power source as well as the antenna and cable system.
    4 WHEN UNIT IS PLUGGED IN DO NOT OPERATE IF:
    - liquid has spilled into unit.
    - unit was dropped or otherwise damaged.
    - unit emits smoke, odours, or noises.
    Immediately unplug unit, and have it inspected by a service
    technician to avoid potential fire and shock hazards.
    
    Never drop or push any object through openings in unit.
    Touching internal parts may cause electric shock or fire hazard.
    Do not put any foreign object on the tray.
     Keep magnetic objects, such as speakers, away from
    unit to avoid electrical interference.
    5 USING ACCESSORIESUse only accessories recommended by the manufacturer to
    avoid risk of fire, shock, or other hazards.
    6 CLEANING UNITUnplug unit. Use a clean, dry, chemically untreated cloth to
    gently remove dust or debris. DO NOT USE cleaning fluids,
    aerosols, or forced air that could over-spray, or seep into unit and
    cause electrical shock. Any substance, such as wax, adhesive
    tape, etc. may mar the cabinet surface. Exposure to greasy,
    humid, or dusty areas may adversely affect internal parts.
    READ AND RETAIN ALL SAFETY AND
    OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS. HEED ALL
    WARNINGS IN THE MANUAL AND ON UNIT
    SERVICE1 DO NOT SERVICE PRODUCT YOURSELFIf, after carefully following detailed operating instructions, the
    unit does not operate properly, do not attempt to open or remove
    covers, or make any adjustments not described in the manual.
    Unplug unit and contact a qualified service technician.
    2 REPLACEMENT OF PARTSMake sure the service technician uses only parts specified
    by the manufacturer, or have equal safety characteristics
    as original parts. The use of unauthorized substitutes may
    result in fire, electric shock, or other hazards.
    3 SAFETY CHECK AFTER SERVICINGAfter unit is serviced or repaired, request that a thorough safety
    check be done as described in the manufacturer’s service
    literature to ensure video unit is in safe operating condition.

    NEC- NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE
    OUTDOOR ANTENNA INSTALLATION1 SAFE ANTENNA AND CABLE CONNECTIONAn outside antenna or cable system must be properly
    grounded to provide some protection
    against built up static charges
    and voltage. Section 810
    of the National Electrical Code,
    ANSI/NFPA 70 (in Canada,
    part 1 of the Canadian Electrical
    Code) provides information
    regarding proper grounding of
    the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire
    to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors,
    location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding
    electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.
    2 KEEP ANTENNA CLEAR OF HIGH VOLTAGE
    POWER LINES OR CIRCUITS
    Locate an outside antenna system well away from power
    lines and electric light or power circuits so it will never touch
    these power sources should it ever fall. When installing
    antenna, absolutely never touch power lines, circuits or
    other power sources as this could be fatal.
